Sr. Research Computing Facilitator<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"Paula<\/span>\u00a0joined FAS Research Computing in March 2022. Before joining Harvard, she worked in a wide range of computational modeling projects from flow and nanoparticle transport in porous media (as part of the Advanced Energy Consortium<\/a>) to tissue mechanics during embryonic development. She is interested in supercomputing, computational fluid dynamics, numerical modeling, and scientific visualization.<\/p>\n

Paula<\/span>\u00a0received a BS in Applied Mathematics and a BA in Computer and Information Systems from Siena Heights University in Michigan in 2007. In 2010, she obtained a MS in Mathematics from the University of Tennessee Space Institute, where she studied the propagation of periodic waves using wave confinement. She then joined Louisiana State University (LSU) to pursue a doctoral degree in Engineering Science and investigate image-based pore-scale flow and nanoparticle transport in porous media. After receiving her PhD in 2015, she worked as a postdoctoral researcher at LSU (2015-2019) and Syracuse University (2019-2022).<\/p>\n

Paula<\/span>\u00a0has many hobbies. Currently, she enjoys cycling (virtually and in real life), running, rock climbing (gym), and snowboarding, especially when she can do these with her partner and daughters.<\/p>\n
